SophieShit, shit, shit. Android display all black after turning on inverted colours. Doesn't reset to normal on reboot and now I can't unlock the phone. Any tricks to be done in recovery?
This is all the phone does on reboot. Shows logos, warnings, the lineage OS animation, a split second of the lockscreen and then nothing. No button presses get any reaction so far other than holding power/vol down to get to fastboot and reboot from there.
The phone was completely fine till I enabled "invert colours" from the swipe down menu becuse of a annoyingly white website. 😢
Swiping about where the pattern should be makes the phone do some vibrations signalling a wrong pattern. I know that I only get so many pattern retries before the phone goes into an even more bricked state.
These are the times where I hate how secure phones have become. Unfortunately, the phone can't discern between a border patrol agent trying to scan my phone for terrorist activities and my personal laptop trying to enable adb for resetting a dumb setting.
Marcus Müller@sophie might help to tell us the actual phone model!
anyways, this looks roughly like a 2023 motorola, so chances are it outputs displayport over USB-C and you could try attaching an external screen to see if there's anything shown that just gets lost in color inversion
@funkylab No reaction to any of the usb-c to hdmi adapters I have laying around. That was the very first thing I tried.
